Russian authorities announced the "partial restriction" of access to Facebook after the social media network limited the accounts of several Kremlin-backed media over Moscow's invasion of Ukraine. Russian state communications watchdog Roskomnadzor said it demanded that Facebook lift the restrictions it placed on state news agency RIA Novosti, state TV channel Zvezda, and pro-Kremlin news sites Lenta.Ru and Gazeta.Ru.
